You can omit the forumid section alltogether which means it will apply to all forums. eg.:

PHP Code:

if ($bbuserinfo['usergroupid']==Y OR $bbuserinfo['usergroupid']==Z) 


Now the hack will restrict viewing of all threads in ALL forums if viewer is from usergroup Y or Z..

Yes thats great

I have this hack installed, and it works, but not exactly as I'd like.
Namely: When an unregistered visitor tries to open the thread, they're blocked, and must go through the registration process. That part's OK. However, they do not have to go through the confirmation process -- so, I get a fair number of registrations everyday from anyname@anydomain.com (and lots of variations). Can this hack be tweaked to force new registrants to respond to vB's email confirmation before they're allowed to open/view threads?

it is related to your usergroup permissions, not the hack itself. Set your email confirmation members' forum permissions for that forum exactly as guests'.

It was already set that way -- permissions for "Unregistered / Not Logged In" and "Users Awaiting Email Confirmation" are the same.

To be clear: I want to let anyone, registered or not, open up any of 11 different forums, and see all the titles of all the threads in that forum. However, only registered and confirmed people should be able to open a thread to view the posts within it.

This is what I'm currently unable to do. I.e., I can force them to register before opening a thread, but I can't figure out how to force them to confirm before opening a thread.

Within vB, I have the admin choice to set "view threads" -- which means really means, view all contents of threads. I need two on/off levels: "view thread titles" and "view thread contents."

Btw, in the admin panel I can go to -->
User Groups | Forum Permissions
to do this, or to -->
Forums & Moderators | Permissions
-- and it's the same result, right?
